• Denture Modification: Converting a Denture Prosthetic to an Acrylic Bridge (Palateless Denture)
  Acrylic denture products are often used as a provisional prosthetic when undergoing treatments for implant supported fixed bridgework. See how a common acrylic immediate denture is modified, by hand, into a palateless denture for an upper arch tooth replacement treatment.

• Cantilevered Implant Bridge

  Cantilevered implant bridgework can be the perfect solution to replacing multiple teeth where implant sites are limited. See how titanium bridge frameworks are made to create a longer arch of teeth that extend beyond the implant devices. In this treatment plan example 5 tightly integrated anterior implants in the mandible are used to support a 10 unit porcelain bridge as a treatment choice for periodontitis conditions that caused significant bone and tissue loss.

• Cantilevered Bridge Case 2

  Cantilevering bridge infrastructures allows wide bridge design that can incorporate a longer span of functional teeth that is impossible to achieve with an ordinary bridge. Placement of implants are strategic and require sound bone. In this treatment example a 10 unit bridge was used to provide bite and occlusion dynamics a denture wearer had not had for many years.

• Implant Supported Full Arch Reconstruction: Bridge In A Day
  Implant supported bridgework is the procedure of choice when considering multi tooth replacement solutions. Watch a VERY GRAPHIC 7+ minute video showing the removal of a failed cemented bridge caused by decay and destruction of anchor teeth. All tissue replacement grafting procedures and placement of immediate function implants enabled the patient to have her entire entire upper arch reconstructed in one treatment session. Sedation support services were provided to assure patient comfort throughout the treatment.

• The Marius Bridge: Edentulous Treatment Animation
  Animated film clip demonstrating the procedural sequence for The Marius Bridge tooth replacement prosthesis for an edentulous maxilla, developed by Yvan Fortin DMD of Quebec Canada. See clip below for real life example of successful treatment for a female patient. Film clip provided through Dr. Dan Marinic of Chicago Illinois (Evanston)
  
  
• Marius Bridge Titanium Interface Try In
  A 2.5 minute video demonstrating an actual try-in of the titanium components along with the new fixed bridge prosthesis on a Diagnostic Stone Model. The Model is a precise representation of the patient's upper jaw with six implant devices mounted. The implant bar is installed, followed up with the mounting of the interface device. As can be seen, the seemingly simple process of aligning the attachment devices progresses smoothly. The final fitting of the fixed prosthetic demonstrates the "Snap In" effect of the Marius interface. Video footage provided by Dr. Dan Marinic of Chicago Illinois (Evanston)
  
  
• Marius Bridge: Final Install
  This video is a continuation of the preceding video. After testing the calibration, Dr. Marinic installs the Marius Bridge infrastructure elements and attaches the final prosthetic. As can be seen in the video, the use of 3D catscans and CAD/CAM milling of the titanium elements creates a perfect fit into the implant configuration that was originally designed with Virtual Treatment software.
  
  
• Marius Bridge Treatment Example
  Actual treatment example using The Marius Bridge. Specially created for upper edentulous jaw reconstruction by Yvan Fortin DMD of Quebec Canada, this denture treatment alternative utilizes proprietary technology for creating tooth replacement choices that offer the rock solid stability of an implant supported prosthesis while enabling patients to remove the prosthesis for routine cleaning or entire replacement.
